Been a while since I last saw a big flounce on any forum. They don't get any less tragic.

What makes people reply to a thread they neither require an answer from nor have anything of relevance to supplement the topic with?

A lack of decorum? boredom? trying to be the funny internet guy? or does post count make you The Don?

PH would be boring without its village idiots, they could do with toning it down once in a while though.
Desperation to be liked ?

Simon: Gentlemen, I'd like you to meet your captain, Captain Oveur.
Clarence Oveur: Gentlemen, welcome aboard.
Simon: Captain, your navigator, Mr. Unger, and your first officer, Mr. Dunn.
Clarence Oveur: Unger.
Unger: Oveur.
Dunn: Oveur.
Clarence Oveur: Dunn. Gentlemen, let's get to work.
Simon: Unger, didn't you serve under Oveur in the Air Force?
Unger: Not directly. Technically, Dunn was under Oveur and I was under Dunn.
Dunn: Yep.
Simon: So, Dunn, you were under Oveur and over Unger.
Unger: Yep.
Clarence Oveur: That's right. Dunn was over Unger and I was over Dunn.
Unger: So, you see, both Dunn and I were under Oveur, even though I was under Dunn.
Clarence Oveur: Dunn was over Unger, and I was over Dunn.

They did require an answer from it. 'Who is Nick Mason' is a valid question. As KVA stated before he had a paddy, the bloke doesn't seek media attention so unlike when people say 'who is David Beckham?' Its actually a real question.

I found it annoying that Papa Hotel and GTIR just HAD to get involved in a thread that had no relevance or interest to them and then wind people up through the nature of their comments instead of just Googling Nick Mason, learning from it, and moving on to something of relevance them.

It's a mild "Look, look, I'm here now, it's me again" empty-vessels-make-most-noise type of disorder.

Its funny that kva is crying in the other thread about attention whoring... then makes a big 'look at me, Im leaving' thread. What was the point? If you don't want to post any more then press log out and don't come back. Why try and add some drama?

I had no idea who that bloke was either - and I was listening to Pink Floyd in the car earlier (part of a top 100 albums I downloaded)

Yet another well meaning thread on PH has gone down the route of trolls and keyboard warriors attention-whoring in the nastiest possible way...

This place used to be full of light-hearted, APPROPRIATE, witty banter, but now it's just a bloody competition to see who can be the most insulting and offensive and incite the most outrage frown

Very sad, but this is not the place it used to be and, in the words of Duncan Banatyne, "Ahm Owt"

Bye

(Oh and Papa-Hotel, GT1R, etc... don't bother replying with a load of insults... I won't be reading any of them, so you'll be wasting your batteries)

KVA, life is short and so is free membership to an elite chesterman armchair warrior oldage groupage keyboard babbler sect.
I have left many times and kept coming back because I sit on the chesterman couch.
That guilt angry annoyance you are feeling is the embers of hope dying but out of that grey pit of despair will arise a beacon of justice ( PH lounge approved ) and you will go forth and create a new band of true brothers to fight your cause and set the foundations anew in the lounge with real people and dreams of friends and bonds of love.
I love this place, shame and embarrassing moments included.

I bet the OP is reading the replies really.

If you didn't want the responses you'd just leave without posting.

hehe
Then come back and read responses and reply with anger and no humour creating an even deeper anger which results in drawing in the OUTSIDE world.
What goes on in the lounge, stays in the lounge.

It's only a website, cyber bullying is for those weak enough to give into it. I'm about as popular as a st sandwich but that doesn't stop me posting and reading. It's a great website!

If anyone is wondering, the crime GTIR and I committed was not knowing who Nick Mason is.

I might create a thread in which to have a flounce too.

Yeah, attention whoring, it's a funny old game.
Then I'm also guilty.

Who is he?
I'm sorry, but I do sense some double standards at play here. If someone like PH had started the same thread, and anyone had asked, then they'd have got a the rolleyes smiley and been told to learn how to use google

Have there been a raft of awful posts removed from the thread in question…?

If not I'm struggling to see what was so awful (compared to lots of stuff on here)…?

Thank you! First thing I thought of when I saw this title. Rest of this thread is just coffee
